Exec says Gazprom to include $2.6 bln fine to Kiev in ’17 report

MINSK, Mar 29 (PRIME) -- Russian gas giant Gazprom will reflect a reserve for payment of a U.S. $2.56 billion penalty to Ukrainian energy holding Naftogaz Ukrainy under a decision of the Stockholm Arbitration Court in the financial report for 2017, Deputy CEO Andrei Kruglov told reporters on Thursday.

“These figures will be reflected in the report. This means that profit will be lower… We will not demonstrate a loss,” Kruglov said.
